GM Engineers at SCCA Toledo Tour

JRL1LE · 07-27-2017, 03:09 PM

Looks like GM Engineers/Employees are driving 5th/6th Gen Camaros at this coming weekend's SCCA National Tour in Toledo, Ohio.

3 in A Street, 2 in BS Street , 5 in Cam-C class including Bill Wise who drove the recent ZL1-LE at Nurburgring.

Also, quite a few signed up for National Championships in Lincoln, NE

Good luck and kick some butt!

I saw that! Should be fun racing them in FS.

I wish some of them were running the 1LE in AS, but happy to see them running a v6 1LE in BS!

Good luck everyone see you there.

Good luck! They were a few guys at Nats in FS last year but Otis had them covered.

I know Philip was fast in HS last year.

If anyone is there, can you ask Bill Wise what suspension work he has done to his '16 SS? I'm interested to hear what he went with on his personal car. Or maybe it's a company car he uses for these types of events.

Bill Wise the science guy! I loved that show growing up.

I'll go on record and say they have nothing on you. My performance last year should not be taken as a barometer of where you stand vis a vis GM guys as I drove like crap in Lincoln.

I agree......but you never know, "the day isn't over yet".
Hopefully someone will surprise us and be up for the challenge.....there are a few competing at different local events

Can someone please ask about the progress on correcting the M6 slow launching, off-the-line bogging and retarded timing issue?

Thanks. Phil ended up having a cone on his last run so going into day two I'm up by .7. Just gota hang on. Car felt good with some slight over heating of the front tires at the end of the runs.
